Group Ride

So a segregation group! No mor or no less than 3 cylinders? Is this not pottist?? Who feels a movement is in order for the twinpot minority?

 

I'll take my Tiger so the bigger-bike lot don't have to 'make progress' to keep up with my whimpy Street Twin.

 

I'm up for that. I would prefer the Eiffel/Moselle region but anywhere will do. I'd just go at my own pace and meet up wherever and whenever at the end of the day. I only did last Saturday's ride as I got up late on Sunday and I rode faster than I normally would. I prefer to ride slower most of the time and appreciate the scenery more with the odd blast thrown in to get the circulation going.

 

By the way, I don't think for one minute that Eric is suggesting this as a replacement for GMU2018 but as an extra.

 

Which alps are we talking about here, French alps, Swizz alps, Italian alps

 

Southern Alps.....gotta be?

 

The only problem - Foreigners !!! It's bloody full of them over there, and the daft buggers drive on the WRONG side of the road. I feel sorry for them, they can't even speak proper, probably because they think what their going to say then have to translate it into french, german, etc, before they speak !!!!!

Brilliant roads this side of the water, showed you a taster at the borders, gets even better once your past Loch Lomond

 

Undeniably true. Applecross, Torridon, island hopping from Stornoway to Barra. The trick is to pick late May or early Sep when we seem to enjoy more stable weather and fewer anticyclones off the Atlantic!

 

We found that out on Saturdays ride

 

.......mind you, you barely scratched the joys of Glen Trool or Galloway. This might whet appetites http://www.motorcyclescotland.com/

 

Sh!t, you could all come to my house ,Ill show you some great roads and feed you, my pleasure. 15 quid a night ,closed December till March.

 

You've persuaded me. I'll bring the plank.

 

Bargain. The way the pounds going that'll soon be worth 15 bob.

 

See what you did there. Omitted the Austrian ones out of respect for Winglad.

 

Only Legal tender excepted ;- Scottish notes.

 

Fwiw I'd be happy to stay in Bellingham again for one meet up in 2018. Already thinking of August Bank Holiday (English variety) this year in Bellingham Bunkhouse to chance seeing those roads we did in dry-ish conditions.
